2 Recognize his Major Works Comprehend his Major Contributions Course of Positive Philosophy Comprehend the two general goals of this work Define Positivism or Positive Philosophy Identify the three stages of human culture/knowledge Discuss the law of classification of the sciences Comprehend his contribution to the science of sociology Analyze his thoughts on systematized positivism as a secular religion
3 1826 he was taken to a mental health hospital-disappeared from the public until 1844
4 Course of Positive Philosophy ( ) System of Positive Polity or Treatise on Sociology, Instituting the Religion of Humanity ( )
5 Founder of Positivism, a philosophical and political movement First philosopher of science Founded the social sciences coined the terms sociology and altruism
6 Positivism A view of scientific methods and a philosophical approach, theory, or system based on the view that, in the social as well as natural sciences, sensory experiences and their logical and mathematical treatment are together the exclusive source of all worthwhile information
7 1817 became secretary to the French utopian socialist Saint-Simon Comte took over three ideas from the complex thought of Saint-Simon The contrast between organic and critical periods in history Idea of industrial society The idea of spiritual power
8 The Course pursues two general goals A foundation for sociology or social physics The coordination of the whole of positive knowledge First three volumes dealt with the physical sciences (mathematics, astronomy, physics, chemistry, biology) Latter three emphasized the coming of social science
9 Follows previous philosophers We have no knowledge of anything except Phenomena Our knowledge of phenomena is relative Constant resemblances link phenomena together Constant sequences unite them as antecedent and consequent are called their laws The essential nature and ultimate causes of phenomena are unknown to us
10 Theological: Universe as governed by single and direct volitions of beings, real or imaginary Animism Polytheism Monotheism Metaphysical: accounts for phenomena by ascribing them to realized abstractions Positive: Understanding the scientific laws that control the world
11 Process through the three stages was inevitable and irreversible Process is also asymptotic we always approach but never obtain, perfect positive knowledge
12 Examined the physical sciences (mathematics, astronomy, physics, chemistry, and biology) Attempted to demonstrate that each science is dependent on the previous science
13 Related to one another in a scale that goes from general to particular; simple to complex Order of the sciences 1. Numbers, Geometry, Mechanics 2. Astronomy 3. Physics 4. Chemistry 5. Biology 6. Sociology
14 Each develops by a logic proper to itself which can be discovered by studying its history Distinguishes between doctrine and method Method is superior the value of a science rests in its methods
15 Comes in different forms: Astronomy = observation Physics = experimentation Biology = comparison
16 Claimed he discovered a final science, sociology - not yet entered its positive stage Sociology Would give Ultimate meaning to all the other sciences It was the once science which held the others together Would reveal that man is a developing creature who moves through three stages in each of his sciences
17 Divided into two distinct parts Social statics the study of socio-political systems relative to their existing level of civilization Social dynamics which entailed the study of the three stages
18 Needed to be a synthesis of order and progress in a higher scientific form Once a science of society had been developed, opinions would be shared and society would be stable Once there was true social knowledge, people would not be as willing to fight over religious or political opinions
19 Purpose to provide a new religion and a new faith The main theme was positivism that was transformed into Complete Positivism which is the continuous dominance of the heart Positivism transformed science into philosophy; complete positivism now transforms philosophy into religion but does not yield a religion of science
20 Priests and a calendar of positivist saints the worship of great men Scientific-industrial elite would replace the Catholic clergy The ancient regime and its destruction by the French Revolution had to be synthesized and made meaningful by a new clergy of elites (technocrats) This insight, religious in nature and intuitive in form was then reformulated by Comte and his followers in terms of a positive science
21 A non-theistic, atheistic religion a religion of man and society Goal was not an affluent society Positive religion urged everyone to live for others Sought to moralize one and all - a cure for humanity not for one class at the expense of another
